Financial institutions are experimenting with Bitcoin-backed loans as interest in the cryptocurrency grows and interest rates fall.
In the first half of 2024, Ledn processed $1.16 billion in crypto loans, with lenders earning over 10% per annum. The total market for such loans is $8.5 billion and could grow to $45 billion by 2030.
Ledn competes with platforms like Arch and Salt, as well as traditional financial institutions.
